NO stranger to the limelight, Allison Stokke has gone from a college athletics star to a regular figure in the pro golf world.
The 34-year-old Californian is married to six-time PGA Tour winner, Rickie Fowler.
Allison was on hand to see Rickie win the 2023 Rocket Mortgage Classic in Detroit, Michigan this weekend.
She competed in the pole vault and has also gone on to become a fitness model.
Rickie and Allison engaged in the summer of 2018 before tying the knot the following year.
They welcomed their first child, daughter Maya, in November 2021.
Allison is a former pole-vaulter who achieved her lifetime best of 4.36 meters in 2012.
Her biggest moment was in the 2012 Olympic trials, but she failed to register a height and missed out on London 2012.
She competed at a national level until 2017 and went on to model for fashion brands like Nike and Uniqlo.
Her pole vaulting prowess came in handy during a collaboration with GoPro, where she shot videos of herself from all angles while jumping.
She boasts over 700,000 followers on Instagram, where she posts adorable family photos.
Allison has been seen cheering her husband on during his golf tournaments and even caddied for him at The Masters.
She is now a happy mother and supportive partner, but her journey hasn’t always been smooth.
In 2007, photos of Stokke pole vaulting as a teenager went viral and were shared on blogs that sexualized her.
And she said to the Washington Post as reported by People: “I worked so hard for pole vaulting and all this other stuff, and it’s almost like that doesn’t matter. Nobody sees that. Nobody really sees me.”
